PUPILS at a Kidderminster school have used modern technology to help revitalise a historic town landmark.

Sion Hill Middle School students worked with professional artists to create seven "striking" art panels now displayed at Broadwaters Mill.

The artwork is made from manipulated digital images of the mill and the surrounding park.

The project is part of a Wyre Forest District Council initiative, launched in 2003, to revive the mill, which dates back to 1240.

Councillor Nathan Desmond, cabinet member for community and leisure services, welcomed the "lease of life" that the initiative had given the Mill.

He said: "The Broadwaters Mill project is a fantastic example of community groups working with the council.

"We are delighted to be able to support this project and continue to help the community improve their area", he added.

The artwork unveiling was the finale of a week of creative arts that aimed to "capture the spirit of the school".

The Capture Week, organised with help from Pablo Productions, gave children the chance to experience a variety of activities, including, bhangra dancing, circus skills and poetry.

Pauline Lowe, head of art at the school, said: "This is the first time that we have done anything like this and it has been a great success.

"All the children have taken part. They all really enjoyed it."
